I will start…being both an adult child of an alcoholic and a parent of an addict; knowing the struggle that comes with it. I have however struggled too, in life – just with different things like success, being respected as a woman, with money, finding it difficult to stick in a LTR with a man. We all have our cross to bear and it’s apparently the one that will refine us the most. So, accepting is also that first step for everyone, not just addicts.
